    Couldn't make it in civilian life

    Unlike it's predecessor, the jeep, the Hummer just couldn't cut it in civilian life. Even from the gitgo it was priced out of most everybody's range. What a shame. http://www.mg.co.za/articlepage.aspx?area=/breaking_news/breaking_news__business/&articleid=271732

    Battery cables for 6v. starter w/12v. battery

    I’m trying to put a 1956 30hp Johnson back into service. The old wiring was brittle and unusable so I’m having to fabricate a new harness. Since the starter is 6 volt and I’ll be using a 12 volt battery, what gauge wire should I use for the battery cables?<br /><br />BTW, I'm aware of possible...

    Hi-rev runaway

    I haven't experienced this but I am curious. I've heard many comments that some of these 2-strokes can "runaway" in neutral and that's the reason for the vacuum shorting switch for one set of points.<br /><br />The only way I could imagine this, is for the revs to get so high that the...

    Why they put headlights on all riding mowers? Am I the only one who doesn't mow in the dark? Anyone here ever burned out one of their headlights and had to replace it?

    Morning Prayer

    Dear God, so far today, I've done all right.

    Safety Chains

    FWIW<br /><br />I had a discussion with my insurance agent the other day. My question was to confirm what I thought, that my auto liability insurance extended to the boat. The answer was, as long as the boat stays connected to the tow vehicle, the insurance extends to the boat. If however, it...
